Product Description:

The FC-280P2K2T4E20H2BXCXXXSXXXXAL is an AC variable frequency drive from the Danfoss VLT FC 280 Midi Drives series. It is installed between the incoming line supply and a three-phase induction motor, where it varies output frequency and voltage to regulate speed and torque. This arrangement supports controlled acceleration, stable process speed, and smoother stopping in equipment such as conveyors, mixers, and HVAC systems. Its chassis-mounted format is suited to compact control cabinets where precise motor control is needed without taking up excessive space.

The drive accepts a three-phase 380-480 VAC supply and delivers up to 2.2 kW, or about 3.0 HP, of continuous output to the motor terminals. Its IP20 / chassis enclosure is intended for installation inside a control cabinet, where surrounding equipment provides the external protection while the heat sink releases heat through normal airflow. An integrated PROFINET control card allows the unit to exchange speed commands, status data, and diagnostic information with a PLC over standard Ethernet wiring. This networked interface helps the drive fit into automated systems that require centralized control and fast response to process changes.

An internal brake chopper handles regenerated energy during deceleration, helping the DC bus remain stable when the motor slows quickly or when the load drives energy back into the system. A coated PCB adds protection against moisture and airborne contamination that may build up inside industrial cabinets over time. The built-in EMC Cat C3 (200/400V) filter reduces conducted interference on the supply side for industrial installations. Because the unit uses a standard language pack and has no local display, routine interaction is intended to take place through external control or network-based tools rather than through a front keypad.
